3 point motorized mixing valve

Post by bitzy »

hello. i have a circulation unit that is equipped with a mixing valve controlled by a 3 point signal actuator.
ESBE GRA 211 Circulation Unit equipped with ESBE ARA661 Actuator https://www.esbe.eu/group/products/circ ... 200-gra300

The goal is to control the flow temperature according to the outside temperature. Being new to domoticz and not having any programming experience, i have a hard time on doing the script to control the actuator.
The actuator is a 230 V one, controlled by 3 wires. i control it in domoticz with the help of 2 switches, switches that control 2 relays from a 4 channel relay module, one for clockwise motion and one for anticlockwise motion.
i need to keep the track for the position of the actuator (it is moving 45 degree in the clockwise direction in 60 seconds from the initial position and 45 degree anticlockwise in 60 sec from the initial position)

Can someone help me with the script to control this actuator? (at least for a fixed temperature of the flow)
If someone is willing to do this i can put more information about the setup i am using and any other information that is necessary.

And another thing: how can i use as a trigger for a script a device that change state in another script? (i have a switch that control the pump that is triggered by the inside thermostat. i have a script that start the pump when the thermostat ask for heat. then i need to make a script that start the comby gas boiler when the pump start. if i manually start the pump, the boiler will fire, but if the pump is started by the script then it will not trigger the script for the boiler (i uderstand that is because how dzvent works? but i don't know how to work around this))

If I'm correct you have basically an open and a close function on this device you want to control with domoticz based on the temperature behind the valve.

So you are looking for: if temperature is below 25° then open valve, and if above 35° then close valve. Thats it or do you also wish to use a thermostat on this? If so have a look in to the Virtual thermostat of domoticz, I use this for my floorheating and it works fine!

the initial position of the valve is at at the middle between half close and half open (actually half open for the flow and half open for return). i call that position 0.
the valve does 90° of movement in 120 sec so to fully close the flow (and fully open the return) from that position (45°), it needs 60 sec ,or 60 sec to fully close the return (and fully open the flow). something like 60 - 0 - 60. it can be put anywhere in between this position. so the only way of maintaining the position of the valve is by counting the time it move.

i assigned the 2 relays at 2 on/off switches but i manually control them with the help of a venetian blinds switch, because i have to be careful not to energize both relays at the same time. i have 2 scripts that close 1 switch if the other one is open, but to activate the script, the trigger is the other switch so for a bit, i end up with both relays energized. so i use a venetian blinds switch with a script that first close the switch if open then open the other one. (but i cant use it in the floorplan unfortunately)
i did a script that take the temperature of the flow, compare it with the desired one an move the valve accordingly by open the corresponding switch for n seconds and keeping count of the sec it moved in a global var. but i end up with the switch doing only 2 cycle and the var going all the way up to 60 cause for what i so in the log the dzvent do all the script and then sending the command to the switch so the var is quickly increased but the actual movement of the valve is way slower.

bottom line is that i kinda have to use some timers with some checking or don't know what to check if the command was executed and i have no idea how to do this.

i thought on keeping the position of the valve in 2 global variable so i can know the position even if i manually move the valve with the switch.
first i need a way of keeping the position of the valve in the interval 60 - 60 for the manual movement, every time i activate the UP switch, a cout_up var need to keep the seconds of movement and not allow the switch to be open for more than 60 sec UP when starting from the 0 position. same for Down movement. (even if the switch open and valve move for 1 sec or 5 sec or 10 ... 50 sec)
something like this (i take a 20 sec movement for this exemple)
the manual reset of the valve is always in this 0 - 0 position.

count_up+20------------count_down-20 if actual_temp < set_temp -->switchUP-on-for 1..60 sec (depending how far apart set and actual temp are)
60--40--20----count_up=0---0----0---0
0---0----0---count_dwn=0--20--40--60
count_up-20--------------countdown+20 if actual_temp > set_temp --> switchDOWN-on-for 1..60 sec .....
for the manual movement count_up/down +/- tine.sec.switch_is_open
and move up or down in this area until the actual_temp == set_temp
the valve need to move a little wait some minutes (3..5) for the temperature to settle, read again and move some more (up or down) if needed.

i did it like this (without the wait part ) but unfortunately doesn't work for the way dzvent does his thing, so time must be used so i have no clue what need to be done cause my programming skills are limited and the syntax and insides of dzvent will take me a lot of time to learn in detail.

if maybe someone help me with 1 switch to keep count of the position and not move over those 60 up and 60 sec down, i can start from there and bring both together depending on the flow temperature, then make the flow temperature dependent of the outside temperature.

i can't put a link to a youtube video to how the valve but look for
50% valve position in VRG valve or ARA manual and automatic operation

This is my setup
floor1.png
floor1.png (221.1 KiB) Viewed 2072 times

i use a 4 module relay board to start/stop the comby, read if the comby is in block state, start/stop the pump for the underfloor heating and to try to control the actuator. (i use a thermostatic mixing valve to get a constant value for my motorized mixing valve to be able to set it in manual mode for the moment). is a work in progress so anything can be changed.
by the way, the controller for that valve with exterior compensation and interior reading for desired temperature is arround 700 euro.

for the thermostat and controlling the pump there is a simple script in the script/dzVent/examples folder

Re: 3 point motorized mixing valve

i managed to do a little script. i need some help from someone who know dzvent and programming to take a look and see what is not write and what can be improved.
i put a auto switch and the switch that help me set the desired temperature as trigger but the switches only start opening after 1 minute. can someone tell me why and what i should change?
please keep in mind that i'm not a programmer.

Code: Select all

return {
	on = {
	    timer = { 
	        'every 2 minutes' 
	        },
		devices = {
		    'Auto_TempAdjustment',    -- dummy switch set the auto/manual
		    'Tur',                    -- the actual temperature after the valve
		    'Setare_temperatura_tur', -- dummy to set the dezired value for the temperature
		   },
		variables = {
		    't_tur_setat',
		    't_DOWN_count',
		    't_UP_count',
		   },
	},
	
	execute = function(dz, devices)
	    local tauto = dz.devices('Auto_TempAdjustment')
	    local set_t = dz.variables('t_tur_setat')           -- global var that keep the dezired value of the temperature
	    local actual_t = dz.devices('Tur')
	    local move_up = dz.devices('TadjustUP_(rLe3)')      -- on/off switch that controll the relay for the up movement
	    local move_down = dz.devices('TadjustDOWN_(rLe4)')  -- on/off switch that controll the relay for the down movement 

	    if (devices.isTimer and tauto.state == 'On') then
	        if (actual_t.temperature > set_t.value) then
	                if (dz.variables('t_UP_count').value == 0 and dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value ==0) then
	                    move_down.switchOn().forSec(5)
	                    dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').set(dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value + 5)
                    elseif (dz.variables('t_UP_count').value == 0 and (dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value > 0 and dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value < 60)) then
                        move_down.switchOn().forSec(5)
	                    dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').set(dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value + 5)
	                elseif (dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value == 0 and (dz.variables('t_UP_count').value > 0 and dz.variables('t_UP_count').value <= 60)) then
                        move_down.switchOn().forSec(5)
	                    dz.variables('t_UP_count').set(dz.variables('t_UP_count').value - 5)
	                end

            elseif (actual_t.temperature < set_t.value) then
                    if (dz.variables('t_UP_count').value == 0 and dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value ==0) then
                        move_up.switchOn().forSec(5)
	                    dz.variables('t_UP_count').set(dz.variables('t_UP_count').value + 5)
                    elseif (dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value == 0 and (dz.variables('t_UP_count').value > 0 and dz.variables('t_UP_count').value < 60)) then
                        move_up.switchOn().forSec(5)
	                    dz.variables('t_UP_count').set(dz.variables('t_UP_count').value + 5)
	                elseif (dz.variables('t_UP_count').value == 0 and (dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value >0 and dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value <= 60)) then
                        move_up.switchOn().forSec(5)
	                    dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').set(dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value - 5)
                end
            end
        
        end
    end
}
is just to figure out how it works, and if someone correct it i will try to go ahead and do some change to move the valve for longer or shorter time, depending on how far the set_temp and actual_temp are and to try to regulate the actual_temp depending on the outside temperature.
thanks in advance !!

i put together another script that moves the actuator more or less depending on how far the actual temperature is from the set value.
i really need someone more experienced to take a look and see what is not right and what can be improved, or if someone has another aproacs to this job a little simpler.

Code: Select all

return {
	on = {
	    timer = { 
	        'every 1 minutes' 
	        },
		devices = {
		    'Auto_TempAdjustment',
		    'Tur',
		    'Setare_temperatura_tur',
		   },
		variables = {
		    't_tur_setat',
		    't_DOWN_count',
		    't_UP_count',
		   },
	},
	
	execute = function(dz, devices)
	    local tauto = dz.devices('Auto_TempAdjustment')
	    local set_t = dz.variables('t_tur_setat')
	    local actual_t = dz.devices('Tur')
	    local move_up = dz.devices('TadjustUP_(rLe3)')
	    local move_down = dz.devices('TadjustDOWN_(rLe4)')

	    if (devices.isTimer and tauto.state == 'On') then
	        
	        if (actual_t.temperature >= set_t.value + 5) then
	            if (dz.variables('t_UP_count').value == 0 and dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value ==0) then
                    move_down.switchOn().forSec(30)
	                dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').set(dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value + 30)

            end
        
        end
    end
}
this one not working as intended. gets at the end then start another cicle into the same direction and not closing anymore !!!!!

Code: Select all

elseif (dz.variables('t_UP_count').value == 0 and (dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value > 0 and dz.variables('t_DOWN_count').value + 30 > 60)) then
because of this not working as it should

is see the subject is of no interest to no one.
i struggled and done this:

}
i dont know how to put it in a more simpler form. maybe someone else cane, but i doubt that since is no interest in the subject.
it will keep the temp like this:
Untitled1.png
Untitled1.png (116.33 KiB) Viewed 1992 times
Untitled.png
Untitled.png (102.16 KiB) Viewed 1992 times

the start, until the return settles a bit is very slow and all over the place. in the pictures above i manually changed the trigger time to 1min.
it needs a 1 min trigger and some time conditioning to move the actuator depending on the temp, at a faster rate at the beginning when the temp start to settle (something like 1/2 a min or 1 minute) and more and more slower when it brought the temp at the set point. need some time manipulation and i don't understand it yet. maybe in the future, or maybe someone else want to do something. and maybe in the future some code whit some corelation betwin flow and return, with some anticipation, cause with this, the actuator is always behind the temp.
over all, a +/- 0.5 degree i'l say it's very good for a improvisation.

It has been a long time for me (school) to touch this topic but perhaps you should read on the topic: PID controller.
If you seach on this in relation with Domoticz you will get topics like:

https://domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16216

And there is also a Plugin https://domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19418 Perhaps not what you need but could be interesting for information.

this is not solved. i need someone to help me do a better job with the code i wrote.
and if someone understand the PID algorithm to help me understand it myself so i can try to improve

                valveResetDone.set('false')
            end    
        end
     end
}
and the script for resetting the valve (moving it in the maxDown position when the heating is close or the automat temperature adjustement is tuned in manual.
The reset is good for puting back in sinc the actual valve with the variable that track the movement in case something happened and they got offset. if the heating is runing 24/7, a sink can be done every day at a desired hour in the script that keep the temperature.

Code: Select all

return {
    on = {
        devices = {
            'Pompa_On/OFF_(rLe2)',
            'Auto_TempAdjustment'
        }
    },
    logging = {
        level = domoticz.LOG_INFO,
        marker = "Valve Reset Script: "
    },
    execute = function(dz, trigger)
        local pompa = dz.devices('Pompa_On/OFF_(rLe2)')
        local tauto = dz.devices('Auto_TempAdjustment')
        local valvePosition = dz.variables('valvePosition')
        local initialSetupDone = dz.variables('initialSetupDone')
        local valveResetDone = dz.variables('valveResetDone')

        if trigger.isDevice and (pompa.state == 'Off' or tauto.state == 'Manual') and valveResetDone.value == 'false' then
            -- Move the valve down for 120 seconds
            dz.devices('TadjustDOWN_(rLe4)').switchOn().forSec(125)

            -- Set valvePosition to -60
            valvePosition.set(-60)

            -- Set initialSetupDone to 'false'
            initialSetupDone.set('false')
            valveResetDone.set('true')
            
            dz.log('Resetting valve position and initial setup flag.', dz.LOG_INFO)
        end
    end
}
i,m triing to make a script to use some heating curve and to automatically set the flow temperature depending on the outside temperature. but if someone else already have this or know how to make it please post it. i have something but is not working. maybe someone can take a look and try a fix.

Code: Select all

Re: 3 point motorized mixing valve

Post by bitzy »

keep in mind that u may need to modify this part for your needs and the system u have:

Code: Select all

-- Check temperature difference and perform valve adjustments
            if diff >= 30 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 100)
            elseif diff < 30 and diff >= 20 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 80)    
            elseif diff < 20 and diff >= 10 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 60)
            elseif diff < 10 and diff >= 8 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 50)
            elseif diff < 8 and diff >= 6 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 40)
            elseif diff < 6 and diff >= 5 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 30)
            elseif diff < 5 and diff >= 3 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 20)
            elseif diff < 3 and diff >= 2 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 10)
            elseif diff < 2 and diff >= 1 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 5)
            elseif diff < 1 and diff >= 0.5 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 2)
            elseif diff < 0.5 and diff >= 0.1 then
                moveValveDown(valvePosition, move_down, 0.5)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            elseif diff <= -30 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 60)
            elseif diff > -30 and diff <= -20 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 30)  
            elseif diff > -20 and diff <= -10 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 20)
            elseif diff > -10 and diff <= -8 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 15)
            elseif diff > -8 and diff <= -6 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 10)
            elseif diff > -6 and diff <= -5 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 5)
            elseif diff > -5 and diff <= -3 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 3)
            elseif diff > -3 and diff <= -2 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 2.5)
            elseif diff > -2 and diff <= -1 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 2)
            elseif diff > -1 and diff <= -0.5 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 1)
            elseif diff > -0.5 and diff <= -0.1 then
                moveValveUp(valvePosition, move_up, 0.5)
            end
how is set here for my system is to move down in bigger steps, to prevent a to higher temperature fluid entering the underfloor heating.

i also made a PID algorithm to keep a constant temperature for who want it.

Code: Select all

return {
    on = {
        timer = { 'every 2 minutes' },  -- Triggers the script every 1 minute
        devices = {                     -- Triggers when the listed devices or variables change
--            'Auto_TempAdjustment',      -- Device 'Auto_TempAdjustment'
--            'Setare_temperatura_tur',
--            'Mod Incalzire',
--            'Tur',
            -- Device 'Setare_temperatura_tur'
        },
    },

    logging = {
        level = domoticz.LOG_INFO,                    -- Sets the logging level to INFO
        marker = "&&&**## PID FOR TEMPERATURE IS ON &&&**## : ",  -- Marker for log entries
    },
    
    execute = function(dz, devices)
        
        -- Get relevant devices and variables
        local tauto = dz.devices('Auto_TempAdjustment')     -- Device 'Auto_TempAdjustment'

this is still a work in progress and there are some global persistent variables used in the PID script that are declarred in a script called:
global_data (see Global persistent variables in wiki: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/DzVents:_ ... _variables

Code: Select all

return {
    data = {
        valvePositionData = { initial = -60 }, -- Valve Rese; PID temperature; Mentinere temp.
        valveResetDoneData = { initial = 'false' }, -- Valve Rese; PID temperature; Mentinere temp.
        
        --Variabes passed from PID and Valve Reset
        --previous_error_flow = { initial = 0 },
        --previous_error_inlet = { initial = 0 },
        --previous_error_return = { initial = 0 },
        
       pompaCaloriferLastUse = {initial = 0},
        
        --integral_inlet = {initial = 0},
        --integral_return = {initial = 0},
        --integral_flow = {initial = 0},
        
        --error = { initial = 0 }, -- PID temperature.
        previous_error = { initial = 0 }, -- PID temperature.
        integral = { initial = 0 }, -- PID temperature.
        derivative = { initial = 0 }, -- PID temperature.
        
        -- Define other persistent variables as needed
    },
}
if someone is interested i will make some comments in the script so that can be easier to understand and modified.

and please if someone can remove the junk posts in this topic so that only useful information remain :)

Re: 3 point motorized mixing valve

Post by bitzy »

this is my variant of a script that will set the flow temperature depending on the exterior temperature and the inside desired temperature:

Code: Select all


-- This script will set the flow temperature of a heating system based on the external temperature and the
-- internal temperature of the room.This is done with the help of the heating curves that are defined based
-- on the desire and the needs of the room u wish.
-- Also the script will set the desire flow temperature based on the type of the heating system u have: underfloor or
-- radiators. In one of this states, the script will automatically keep a minimum and maximum flow temperature depending
-- on the state of your settings (underfloor or radiators). Also a manual state can be set where u set the temperature
-- at any value u want.

        -- Define a threshold for exterior temperature change to trigger the script
        -- U can set here how many degrees the outside temperature need to change before the flow temperature will be changed to the next value from the coresponding heating curve
        
        local tempChangeThreshold = 2   -- Adjust this value as needed
        local decimalNumber = 1         -- this is the noumber of decimal for the temperature sensors 


-- Define heating curves based on your requirements
-- The heating curves will be set as follow: temp - is the outside temperature; pardosealaFlow - is the underfloor temperature
-- u want for the coresponding outside temperature; calorifereFlow - is the radiator temperature.

        local heatingCurves = {

the 'global_data' script contain some global persistent variable that i use in the scripts i made including this one (useful for the future modification of my setup) and also a rounding function that round a number depending on the amount of decimals someone desire (i made this because i didn't know what the correct function is (if exist) in dzvents. the way the rounding is done is like this: if u want to round at 1 decimal, we look at the 2 decimal and if that is under 5, the 1-st decimal will remain unchanged. if the second decimal is >5 then the 1-st decimal is increased by 1. if the second decimal ==5 we look at the 3-rd decimal and if is <5, first decimal remain the same if 3-rd decimal>5 then 1-st decimal is increased by 1 and so on. we can do that for 0, 1, 2, 3, ... n decimals.
if someone know the correct function in dzvents that does this kind of rounding please poste it here !!
